Soni, don't Joey mod the headlights. Just put a light tint over them. Looks good. And I'm curious about the price on your paint job myself. I haven't priced it yet around here. Just curious as I've been told it's a tedious job with matte black and can be kind of expensive.

This Clubbie replaces my R53 earlier in this thread. I don't think I'm going to fully black it out though it's close.

I like this picture because it reaffirms my thought that the R53 front end looks infinitely better than the newer style.

Thanks! Exhaust is Miltek. I thought it had the best looking tip for the MC and the sound is great

Did you just use flat black car paint for the chrome on the door handle and the trim all the way around?

The headlight rings are a one off carbon fiber ring done by aesthetic creations

the door handles and mini wings are plastic covers from aesthetic creations

The belt line is some 3m tape that i got from Detroit tuned

The original bumpers with the chrome trim were replaced with the factory aero kit

Mirror caps and boot handle are the JCW carbon fiber options

I think that covers all the chrome... Headlights, running lights and fog lights, along with the tail lights were a tint kit from moss motors
